Glad you are happy with your effort Hazel - it will get easier to pace them (though I expect you know that).

How is your knee Donaldo?

I've woken without a headache this morning which is nice. Taking MiL visiting this afternoon and have work (though fortunately not much) tomorrow and Thursday though so stress levels may be on the up again. Cold here this morning and breezy (don't laugh OH!) and forecast colder tomorrow - I'm really hoping it warms up for Sunday.

What: shorter than I'd like/hospital visitingWhy: taper/MiL can't driveLast hard: trying to decide how best to support MiLLast rest: 27/11

LMH lol, I realised last night when I gave my last bit of Tiffin cake to cleo that I had called it Tiffany! It is Tiffin not tiffany, yummy. Cleo passed her level 7 at Trampolining last night, I didn't join in!!

Glad your headaches have cleared, LMH. How far to drive is it for you to get your MiL to hospital?

Hazel: Well battled yesterday and a well deserved rest day today. It's good how some runs just keep you honest. I quite like to use my low key 20k winter series for those runs. I find it a lot easier to hit LT pace in company And it's such a good feeling to be tearing through the field on the last lap feeling mean

Dustin: today seems to be LT day I attempted mine too. Unfortunately my left hamstring started to niggle after about 4k (did my session on the TM and ran with an incline - not sure if that set things off).

Well done Cleo! Level 7 sounds quite acrobatic.

Storm alert here - we're also forecast high tide and have to remove our cars from the garage at work. They're going to shut the flood gates at 4:30pm.

What: 5km time trial with local clubWhy: it was on and it gave me people to run withLast hard: that wasLyrics: nope

Nice flat route to the beach, the back along the main road to the harbour, through the harbour and back. A few roads to cross (pedestrians do not have any right of way here so had to be careful!), a lot of wind and a few patches with ankle deep sand. Finished in 26:25 ISH, think I was about 3rd lady.

Ale/LMH: The storm was pretty bad but luckily it's not the horrid North-Westerly that pushes the water from the North Sea our way . There just some local flooding but nothing too bad. We've had worse. They shut the floodgates just as a precautionary measure to prevent damage to those cars parked on the lower levels. Mine is on the ground floor .

Just did today's yoga session. That left hamstring is really sore foam rollering and spikey- balling it into submission now. Won't run tomorrow so it can sort itself I hope.

Club night tonight, first one for a while. Knee gave me some trouble due to the circular nature of the reps. 3 x 1 mile in about 6:18, taking it relatively easy, going out every 9 minutes - the bottom group of the night.
